               MODULAR BALL JOINT RING
                 Ideal when building custom control arms for modifieds, ball joint rings may
               be combined with steel suspension tubing to deliver the desired front end
               adjustments.

               STANDARD, LOW FRICTION AND EXTENDED BALL JOINTS
                 AFCO offers a complete selection of standard, low friction and extended ball joints. Stock appearing low friction ball joints have only 2 lbs. of resistance (stock
               ball joints have as much as 50 lbs.) to reduce rigidity, freeing up the shocks and springs for improved wheel control. Extended length ball joints dramatically im-
               prove both the camber curve and roll center location, resulting in enhanced high speed handling and turning characteristics. Standard ball joints are also available.
